26 August 2008 Two processes are involved in the deposit of TDS in govt account. These are:

1. Tendering of Cheque with the relavant challan
2. Realisation of money by the collecting bank against the said cheque.

The deductor is resolved of his responsibility if the cheque is tendered in due time.
